Access roll ups have been good to me. This truck is on its third bed, but still the same Access tonneau cover.
Rough Country has a nice black powder coated aluminum slat roll up. Cool cover. My son is getting it for his new Sierra. Seems like a nice compromise from a soft roll up or a hard flip up. He didn't like the idea of having it block the back window when flipped up.
Will update once we install it. $900.

The liberal mind is an endless black hole of stupidity.

The exact same cover that I have. It's been on two trucks for what has now been 10 years. Cold doesn't bother it when rolling it up. It was 23 degrees when I loaded up for a dump run today.
I'm considering a tonneau cover for improved gas mileage.......is this a worthwhile solution?
In theory yes. In the real world you'll need pretty accurate measurement devices to figure out the fraction of 1 mpg you'll save. The fuel savings will never come close to paying for the cost of the cover.
A tonneau cover would be in the way more than it would help me. I've tried them and prefer a cap. A good fiberglass tonneau isn't much cheaper than a cap and the roll up ones don't last long. It's pretty rare for me to find something that won't fit and if it doesn't fit in the bed it's a lot easier to load in the utility trailer anyway.
Most people don't really want the truth.
They just want constant reassurance that what they believe is the truth.
